Let’s talk about sex
Lost your va-va-voom during lockdown? We’re here to help. Whilst the pandemic saw many of us become a dab hand in the kitchen baking endless amounts of banana bread, it also spurred a lack of motivation in other areas of our homes, namely the bedroom. To help you out, we sat down with sexpert Kate Moyle who answers your most intimate questions as well as our sexual wellness edit to help you get your mojo back.
Kate Moyle, sex and relationship expert at LELO, answers your most intimate questions
What’s the G-Spot?
The G-Spot is a more sensitive area or 'zone' on the anterior wall of the vagina. It's not an anatomical structure, but a part of the clitoral network and can be effective in creating pleasure and helping women achieve orgasm when stimulated.
Do I need to clean my sex toys?
Yes – toys should always be cleaned after use to ensure no bacteria from bodily fluids is left behind. Using unscented or antibacterial soap, like you would on your body, is sufficient to clean sex toys – just make sure that they are dried and stored afterwards. LELO Premium Cleaning Spray is paraben and alcohol free.
Since having my baby nearly a year ago, I don’t want to have sex. How do I get my libido back?
Work on spending time with your partner, focusing on touch and sensuality, without the pressure to have intercourse – this can trigger desire. It’s important to remember that sexual experiences don’t have to involve intercourse to be valid and pleasurable. Our massage candles are the perfect touch to get intimate again with your partner.
